Personal Potential is a comprehensive counselling service based at Crowle, North Lincolnshire, between Scunthorpe to the east, Doncaster to the west, Goole to the north and Gainsborough to the south. It is run by Dr Carl Stonier, who is amongst the best qualified and longest-in-practice practitioners in the country, and because of this, and the effectiveness of Personal Potential Counselling clients regularly travel from as far afield as Harrogate, Manchester, Rotherham and Grimsby.

I now offer sessions via Skype, so distance is no longer a problem.

Style of Counselling

Integrative, but with the Person Centred Approach, pioneered by the late Dr Carl Rogers as a foundation. I am trained in all of the 4 basic approaches to therapy - Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioural, Psychodynamic and Transpersonal, and am a world renowned master in Guided Imagery Therapy. I also use hypnotherapy and past life regression therapy where appropriate, and am an Accredited level 3 Advanced Practitioner and Supervisor of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

I have a number of audio CDs available, including using Guided Imagery to help in dealing with cancer, heart disease and pain control and a general purpose introduction to guided imagery/meditation and personal growth

I also have copies of the book 'Cancer a Personal Challenge' Ed Bob Rich, to which I contributed 2 chapters

Costs

Individual counselling costs have remained unchanged now for 12 years and remain at £40 per 1 hour session. I have been able to keep such low rates by

inviting those who can afford more to pay more if they wish, helping to subsidise therapy for those less able to pay and:-

by charging more realistic rates for organisational consultancy and training courses.

As a special offer the first
two sessions are offered at a discounted fee of £60 (i.e. a saving of
£20). The normal £40 fee for the third session will be payable in
advance at the second session and so on.

Trainee counsellors who require personal therapy as part of their training will be charged £30 per session

The cost for groups will vary depending upon the group size and purpose. Please contact me to discuss your requirements.
